Hi, glad to inform you that my pattern Charm a la Russe is available in English and Russian.
Knit and enjoy!

Charm a la Russe – is an elegant triangle shawl with different stitch patterns. Light shades of yarn will look better.
Triangular shawls are loved by Russian women and add a touch of your individuality to your casual look.

SIZE (lightly blocked)
Wingspan -140 cm
Center depth - 65 cm
Your shawl may have a different size as it depends on the yarn that you choose. Try to take yarn to fit the gauge. Don’t take too thin yarn as your shawl will be very small then.

YARN
LoroPiana Clan (85% cashmere, 15% mohair, 350m/100g). My shawl is knitted in a light grey blue color.
You may take any wool yarn to fit gauge.
Do not take any yarn with acrylic fibers. I do not recommend tweed yarn as your cables will look flat.
